How to work the MetaServer in Freeciv

[leonelag]

Hi

I installed an ADSL connection at home, and I had to change my Ethernet card IP to 0.0.0.0

Since then, I can't connect my FreeCiv client to my server on my own machine, that is, I can't play on one-player.

Help !

The IP address on your home box is not 0.0.0.0, since that is not a valid IP address. I guess you just turned on DHCP, which means you will be given an IP address by your ISP when you start your computer. You can get this addres using the program 'ipconfig'.

In any case, the IP address 127.0.0.1 should work. It is your localhost address, always pointing back to you.
